Rising Tide Car Wash is our car detailing spot. We enjoy going there regularly. The other week, for Valentine's Day, we planned a trip up coast to Jupiter & Hobe Sound. My husband surprised me by getting our car detailed (wash n' wax & inside TLC) there the day before we left (5 for him too!). I departed work on Friday to step into a fresh, squeaky-clean car! What a treat! Everything was fresh, polished, vacuumed and it felt like a new car! The waiting area is nice, the staff is friendly and accommodating and the car liked it too. They do a Good Job! Thanks! read more

Save time, have a clean car and buy a monthly membership because it's well worth it. If you don't want a monthly membership, you can pay per wash. I love this car wash. I go weekly but if you have the membership for around $31, like I do, you can go everyday. It's super quick and efficient. Tire shine is incredible. So no need to get the hose and vacuum out at home anymore and waste my time. There are plenty of vacuums that are included with the wash price. Inside detailing is available for a fee if needed. My car thanks me and rising tide because it is always clean and shiny now. read more

We like all Rising Tides. Staff is knowledgeable and pretty fast. They run an efficient business. The membership is fun when you have an 8 year old that needs stuff to do. We like that we can borrow rags and cleaning supplies. read more

We were tired of driving cars that were dirty. We took a chance and visited Rising Tide on a Saturday. It was crowded, which was a good sign. We were greeted by Tyler. He explained everything and answered all of our questions. Thanks to his help, we purchased a membership for two cars. Thank you Tyler!!!! read more

Read my review ! Posted minutes ago ! This business has a special place in my heart ! As well as the heart of all customers, family and friends who have someone with special needs near to them ! This has become my new church as I see the faith and love of the workers here as it reflects on my fresh looking, clean, healthy car dine in an environment without a hassle ! Kudos read more

The quality was great and the service was phenomenal. The attendant was nice and courteous. Well worth the money. They cleaned the interior and exterior of my car. read more

The location is fantastic. If you go later on at night, there won't be a wait. If you also go in the morning, there won't be a way. I love how my tires look. The service is pretty great and the guys are very friendly. The wash takes about 90 seconds and I can tell you my tires always look so shiny and pretty. You definitely get good value. This is not one of your cheap car washes. This is a place where you get good service and you pay good money for it. read more

Very accommodating. We were always encouraged to go for a second round if we needed to and they put our subscription on hold for our time away immediately without question. read more

Great service always. Very detailed interior cleaning for the cost. I've been coming here for years. Better the any other car wash that I've tried in broward. They always pull the floor mats and clean them, even wash them if made of rubber. They wipe down all interior service area, door james, etc. windows perfectly cleaned. I don't expect perfection but it's nearly perfect every time. In my opinion, if you want it any better than this, you're either going to pay a lot more for a skilled detailer, or you're cleaning it yourself. read more

Yikes!! Purchased the membership a few days ago and didn't quite realize how it worked. We were just told it pays for itself with 2 washes/month. Showed up today with different vehicle, not realizing the membership was for the specific vehicle. Guy working the entry was incredibly rude about this mistake. He said he didn't mean to be rude but had other customers to help. This was literally after just telling us that it didn't recognize our license plate. We left. Cancelling membership and taking business elsewhere. As far as the quality of the actual service from a few days ago, wash was ok. There were a few areas inside that hadn't been touched. The inside detail is more of a "dusting" at best. I do not recommend this place if you want an actual clean vehicle. It's ok if you care more about the providing jobs to people with disabilities than getting your car clean, read more

very friendly, not worth the price. I got the most expensive services because my car NEEDED some TLC, I wish I didn't go here. $39 for incomplete service - the wax is stuck in little balls on my car and the inside which I paid extra to get detailed is a mess... I am very upset and disappointed. They didn't let me know when the car was done. I think they scratched the paint while trying to buffer it. I'm a broke college student and this was supposed to be a treat for myself- so I feel better having people in my car and driving but instead I'm left broke and sad. I am going back later to either have them work on it again or get a refund (I talked to manager and they told me that's the options). Very nice people just oversold the capabilities. read more

I went there for a 1 time car wash. All of a sudden my credit card is being charged for a membership which I never authorized. Tried to contact company but no response. contacted credit card for fraud read more

Car came out dirty and streaked. I bought the middle car wash. I don't know why it doesn't wash as advertised. There are plenty of people here who complained but nothing was done to make any improvement. read more

This is such an amazing place! They do a stellar job on the cars, great value, and they are helping the community with their hiring practices. Cannot say enough good things about it. read more

Car wash experience was great! I haven't tried the other services yet and will update the review when I do.

I would go to this carwash on a regular basis but no more They have decided to penalize you and make you wait in lines 10-15 cars long if you don't have a membership some of us don't want a membership or on a fixed income and really can't afford that extra monthly cost. I understand you want more Memberships and content revenue but it's at the expense of the customers who can't afford it before you could go to Both lines membership or not and it was Fairly quick I will no longer come here and wait 20-30 minutes or more for the attendant to sell memberships while we all wait for them to go thru there sales Pitch horrible PS the employees are always great there I give them that Sorry have to find another car wash that is faster read more

I got a basic $12 car wash and my car was just as dirty after the wash. I went right back to show them and they told me they don't do a rewash for the $12 price. I explained it that it didnt get clean to begin with but they didn't care. I will never go back. read more

They did a great job. Thought the cars are too close together in the car wash itself.

I do like this car wash. Pricey but it is long car wash that pulls your car through each stage of being washed. The bugs were still on the front of my car, so I did ask to go through a second time. The employee agreed to allow my car to go through a second time. The bugs were a little less. They have vacuums that are available to use. They have great suction so make sure you don't come close to anything you may not want sucked up. The membership is to expense to pay monthly since I'm not close enough to be here multiple times a week/month. However when I'm close by I will use the car wash again. Enjoy! read more

Rising Tide Car Wash - Car Wash Near Me - Margate, Florida

Riding Tide Car Wash never cease to amaze me. I love getting the monthly unlimited car wash membership for the ceramic gloss package. It's a great value! I vacuum my car after getting it washed to keep it clean and once a month I paid for the interior package which is also a great value. Employees are always friendly and the keep the premise as clean as they do your car! read more

Rising tide car wash. Oh my god I can't believe this employee spent at least 5 + min a car (non-club member lane) trying up sell a wash /or membership even when I told him stop, I'm running out of gas etc he couldn't control himself, finally I threatened to see the manager. His voice sounded real sale-see, " Im sorry mamm let me just tell you about...Then another employee came over and I escaped. If you're not a member don't go there it isn't worth the hassle ! read more

Too pricey, not worth the expenditure, difficult to cancel, staff not helpful. Wasted my money.

One of the best car wash I've ever used! This last time I went I was absolutely amazed by the service, they're all normally very friendly, polite and respectful. Today I was helped by Oyven (I hope I'm not spelling his name wrong ) he provides excellent service, I mean above expectations!!! I left ecstatic to see how he treated me and everyone around him with such kindness and helpfulness. We need more people like him in this world. He made my day and I appreciate it. A big thank you to him and congrats to Rising Tides for having such amazing people in their team read more

Great service and amenities. I got an interior clean today and the staff took care of my cars problem areas and demonstrated great attention to detail. My interior was like night and day. Feels like I'm driving my car for the first time again. read more

Rising tide did an amazing job with the interior and exterior of my car. Friendly and helpful staff as well

The way this place is set up is very efficient. You pull up and can choose the outside washes / inside cleaning Atm-style. There is often someone there to help if you need it. You pull up to the wash part and someone directs you what to do with a sign which is helpful. Then if you bought it, you drive to the detail part where you can sit inside or outside. I wish they had an option to shampoo the seats. I rated 4 stars because they don't always do the greatest job on the detailing part. But they are fast. And I appreciate their hiring of mostly autistic people. Prices are decent, and they have free vacuums for the inside of your car. So All-around A-OK. read more

Rising Tide Car Wash - Car Wash Near Me - Margate, Florida

I appreciate your mission and had been a customer for years. Prices doubled. Service dropped. Closed lane. Goodbye.

I have passed by this car wash many times but I usually wash my own car and detail it myself. I was taking a road trip and was short on time so I decided to let Rising Tide handle the car cleaning this time. Rising Tide was created by John D' Eri. He was inspired to create a business where people on the autism spectrum could work after watching his son Andrew struggle. He was concerned about what sort of job Andrew would do after he completed school. In 2011, when Andrew was 21 he purchased a failing car wash with the intention of providing employment for his son and other people on the autism spectrum. Today Rising Tide is run by John and his other son Thomas. They have since opened a second location in Parkland. Since this was my first time here I wasn't sure how it all worked but they make everything very simple. There is two lanes that take you to a kiosk where you can order a wash that ranges in price from $6.95 to $19.86. I picked the Manager's Special that included a turbo wax and shine, ultraguard foam bath, ultraguard paint sealant, and ultraguard polish. You get a 5 day guarantee. For $9 you can add a standard detail that includes vacuuming, clean windows, air blow crevices, cup holders, hard surface wipe down, and quality check. If you open your trunk they will vacuum that out for you and they include a free sanitization. If you don't want this service they offer free vacuums so you can do it yourself. With the wash and detail it was $30. Once you pay you drive forward onto rails that pull you though the wash. You just release the brake and put the car in neutral. The wash had quite a few steps and it looked like my card got a good cleaning. The soap smelled really good too. After the wash you drive to the detail area where they have a crew cleaning the cars. At one point I counted four people working on my car at once. While they detail you can wait at tables outside or they have a waiting room with vending machines. When your car is finished they call you by vehicle. When I got home I went over my car and it needed a few touch ups. There was still dirt spots on the paint that I removed with a cloth. I had to redo some of the windows which had streaks and the sunroof wasn't touched. I wasn't going to sit there and nit pick them like I saw some other people doing. Overall it was clean enough and they even found the Mally eyeshadow stick I lost in the car and put it in the cupholder for me. It was cleaner than I had the energy to do and my car was very dirty when I brought it in. $30 is a lot so I'll probably still mainly clean it myself but in a pinch I would consider using them again. I love their mission and they are very convenient to get in and out of when you are in a hurry. read more

Brought my new volvo in came out with 2 cuts in my molding on both sides by my hood, Mgr said NOT LIABLE..... would never go back.....Stay Away read more

Poor service. If you come here, just clean the inside of your car itself. The interior detailing service is a waste. Not only did I still have to REclean it but it took them over 30 mins to even touch my car and there were only two other cars in front of me! The workers all stand around talking or on their phones and move like snails. Then ask for a tip... Won't be returning here at all! read more

Rising Tide Car Wash - Only two cars here and took them 30 mins to even start on mine with 6 workers doing interior - Car Wash Near Me - Margate, Florida

1/7 UPDATE: I paid for above the EXPRESS INTERIOR cleaning. With how happy I am with the quick outside only wash... I am that much disappointed with trying out the full service. Per my photos there were a multitude of common vehicle interior areas that were missed. I paid nearly $30 for this wash. Now I'm gonna have to go again to a different car wash tomorrow to get my interior cleaned properly. I'll probably still use RT for outside only washes, but knowing there probably isn't much quality assurance for the interior washes i high doubt I'll give full service another try. read more

I took my car through the car wash and the passenger side was not cleaned. The brushes never touched the side of the car. I went to talk to the manager. She said I should've bought a more expensive car wash. She did not offer to rewash I canceled the membership I had on my other car and I will not be returning. read more

Great service. My car was really dirty in the inside and they cleaned every spot perfectly. Very worth the price as well. Ahmad was super kind and went above and beyond to make sure I had a good experience there. read more

They do not do a good job, and their prices are rather high. It's just unfortunate this is for such a worthy cause and such a great group of individuals. More training is needed. read more

9/28/2019 - Busy day here, better to come during the off peak hours. Nice car wash. Friendly staff and great service. I paid for the Turbo Wax and Shine with Interior. When my car went through the wash, the person before the car went through asked if I wanted to take off the antenna. I said yes. He couldn't get it so he just left it. My tire cover flew off and the lady behind me let me know so one of the guys went back to get it. He offered to clean it. They have a nice waiting area indoors and chairs and tables to wait outdoors. Once the car was done I checked it and noticed the rims weren't great but they were so busy I didn't bother to have them redo. The guy in front of me was not happy with his car detail and had a guy redoing the work. I would go back at a not so busy time and see if the detailing is better. I also noticed later that the top of my car was not clean when I opened my sun roof. read more

This used to be my go to Car wash. I would visit it very frequently until they offered this membership program. I've never seen the cars so backed up all the way back to the entrance. This is ridiculous. I guess I gotta find a new Car wash. read more

My Happy Place. I was ecstatic when my favorite and local car wash started offering monthly membership. Between car pooling kids daily and after school activities this place is THIS MOMs HAPPY Place. One of my favorite car washes ever. A great cause as well! read more

I see some negative comments here and I get that some people are hard to please and also that things happen but I have to say that no one is more persnickety and OCD about their cars than me (well maybe there's 2 other people in the world ). I have 3 cars and bring them here regularly and must say I'm always happy with the work. I will continue to come here for as long as they keep up the good work. Give these kids a chance and if something doesn't meet your expectations then speak with a manager and get it resolved. Give them a chance and form your own opinion. read more
